Crossing Into Brazil On Foot From Guyana 🇬🇾🇧🇷 (#113)

BRAZIL! The day had finally come. I had been learning Portuguese here and there for years, but had never made it to the country, until now. But I wasn't going to take the typical tourist route and fly into Rio de Janeiro. Oh no, that's not how I do things.

Instead, being that I was already in the rarely visited country of Guyana, I decided I would go down to their southern border and cross into Brazil that way. There, in the state of Roraima, was a region rarely ever visited by foreigners, but worth the trip. It's mainly the home of different indigenous communities like the Macuxi and Wai Wai, that live on both sides of the border: speaking English on one side, and Portuguese on the other. This is what I live for.

This is gonna be good. Brazilians, feel free to contact me with any tips or suggestions, I'm here now.

This will probably be the last country from the Americas this year, but who knows, I don't know how to plan things more than a week in advance.

Guyana, skunt, it was fun. I really ended up liking your country in the end. I even have one more video recorded from the interior, but I think I'll release it at a later date -- it's time to mix it up a bit.

Don’t think I’ll ever get to visit this part of the world in my life time (Suriname, Guyana, northern Brazil/Amazonas) but I’m glad you did. Opened my eyes. Thank you.

Sabbatical, Welcome to Brazil! You're always on the move, Guyana, Suriname and Brazil, back to back to back!

Oh man, you are definitely different from any other guy making travel videos on YouTube. Thanks for coming to Brazil, and for beginning your journey here exactly like you have done.
Hope your adventure here can be as fantastic for you as it's being for me in this first video in our contry.
It's a very diverse country, in every way you can possibly think. Of couse, there's many problems we are facing now and some of them came from long time ago. These problems are sided, but mostly compensated, by the beauty of the country and the warmth and kindness of the people here. You will probably see it, mainly because you choose to know the countries as they are in fact. That's one of the reasons I guess the majority of your followers keep coming to your channel video after video.
I live in São Paulo and hope you have the opportunity to come here and get to know this huge, beautiful and complex city!
Parabéns pelo seu trabalho, seja muito bem vindo ao Brasil!
Que os seus dias aqui sejam mágicos!

Really liked this video. I like that you go to out of the way places that is not normally featured. It shows another side of these countries. Look forward to your next video. Good luck from Florida.

[walterbrown]

I have been following your travels for a couple of months, even going back to check out some of your previous videos. I love that you travel to places that are not normally visited. It offers a great perspective on life in areas most know nothing about. Great job. Keep up the great work.

Man, that was the coolest exit out of an airport and into another country. It was like exiting out of a village bus stop !!!... 😂😂

[Craze]

I was hoping you would go to Brasil!! What a good energy and music I want to go too.

[LeftSideDown]

I've actually been to the Lethem-Bonfim border once, and that was the only hour of my life spent in Brazil. Also props to you for actually knowing how to pronounce Guyana.

[ChuuckKnight]

Lol... the opening to this videos is great bro. My wife is Brazilian. She's here in Sacramento with me now. I went there twice to be with her. It's fing awesome.

[mitchelloetgen]

Dude, literally my favorite YouTube. We both have an intense passion for languages. My goal is to know at least greetings in every language possible, and listening to you speak in different languages is super cool. Thanks for the good work!

[robinthomas]
